There are provided a tape cartridge which can reliably remove contamination adhering to the surface of a head and a tape loading system using the same. A tape such as recording tapes and leader tapes is unreeled from a case body housing the tape and is taken up to the take up reel of a tape drive through a loading path of the tape drive. A brush which can bend elastically is placed on a leading end side of the tape in a protruding manner. The brush moves in the state of being in contact with a head placed along the loading path of the tape drive upon unreeling of the tape, so that the head of the tape drive is cleaned by the brush.
